I'm so sorry I haven't been active the past few days. With the long holiday weekend and some mess ups on the work schedule I've been a bit beat up the past day or two! ARGH!
I have a confession guys. I'm REALLY bad at asking for help. Whether it's emotional advice, or physical help getting something off a high shelf, or financial help from my parents, I'd just rather NOT ask for help and struggle through it on my own. That way when I fail I only have myself to blame, and no one else can be disappointed in me. This is NOT a good way to live your life. I know that. Feeling like you're never going to amount to anything because you HAVE to ask for help is like purposely stabbing yourself in the leg before taking a 5k race. Bad idea. BAD. However this is what I repeatedly do... I stab myself in the leg by not asking for something as simple as "can you reach this pan for me? it's a bit too high..." and then I end up hurting myself with a stack of pans to the head.
So when I struggle to keep a maintenance on my life... I fight through it by myself because I feel like I'm going to inconvenience someone who has their own burdens... and then I mess everything up because it's something that I should have asked for help with but was too damn stubborn.
You'd think with me knowing this I'd just ASK FOR A HAND... but no. I don't. I just keep tripping up and hurting myself in the end, and then I get really confused because I should have made it through it just fine.
Lesson to be learned, kids: don't be like me. Ask for help when you need it.
